Chapter 38
He Came From The Mountains
That wretched middle-aged man seemed very hungry, swallowed down the sausage just in one bite, heaved a sigh and said, “fuck, the smuggling spaceship didn’t provide the aviation meal incredibly, it’s really too shameless… young man, where have you been to just now, I was almost starved to death.”
Shielding sucked a gasp and said, “go buy the clothes with a friend.”
“That called Sheilor little porter?” the middle-aged man still had the sausage in his mouth, the speaking was a bit vague, “don’t say it any more, bring me to go to have a meal first.”
Shielding had a wry smile, led the middle-aged man to the restaurant on the third floor, he didn’t need to check what contact code-- could find him in the crowd in a glance, could know that he had a friend named Sheilor, and so wretched and ordinary to let people didn’t want to take a look at him for a second sight-- that only could be He.
In the quiet restaurant, Shielding stared at that middle-aged man on the opposite side of the table, the mood had already emerged from the shock.
Yes, he could never imagine, the dignified number two character of the anti-government army, the let the federal FBI and Secret Service extremely headache, couldn’t wait to eat his meat, bite his bone the “He” would actually be a character such like this.
Although to be the spy this career, especially the top spy, the look was the more ordinary the better. But no matter how Shielding looked, he always felt the other party… the look was really somewhat ugly.
Shielding was a proud man, after he emerged from the shock, the first sentence he said to his top boss seemed not that respectful, “don’t you know how many people in the federation want you die?”
“Not that many, only four people.” the middle-aged man still lowered his head to deal with the noodles, said vaguely, “the President, the Secretary of Defense, the Director of the Secret Service, and the Director of the FBI… they are just taking care of the wild rabbits, if the Charter Bureau really wants to take care of me, I would have died long time ago.”
Shielding frowned slightly, after the mysterious halo of in front this man disappeared, always let him feel a bit hard to adapt to it. He incredibly still had the good mood to tell the joke at this time, it really somewhat made him hard to endure it, so he couldn’t help to say, “don’t you know, you this kind of identity character show up in the Coastal state suddenly, I would be the most likely killed that man? You are just the second one.”
The middle-aged man finished the noodles, looked up with a smile and said, “fear death still need to come over, no fear death still need to come over… fear the death or not, I still would bring the sincerity to come over here. Since you join in this career, then you can’t be afraid of death… Eagle you did very well in the last few years, I believe that your arrangement can ensure my safety.”
Heard Eagle this familiar and strange code name, Shielding that beautiful eyebrows were frowned more severely, he asked, “I don’t have any preparation for this, how can I bring you into the dancing party to meet that prince?”
He looked at this federal class most-wanted, always felt that the other party that somewhat twisted face, had the share of he felt very familiar shadow. He stared at the other party in the eyes and the brows, he said, “even you have your face disguised at this time, but it is still too dangerous.”
Was seen through his camouflage by Shielding, the middle-aged man just had a smile slightly, didn’t care about it at all. He knew that this young comrade in front of him had his own pride, he silenced for a moment and then said, “I believe that you could have already got everything ready in this short time.”
Shielding couldn’t help to heave a sigh, brought out an invitation from the bosom and handed it to him, and took out a bag like performing the conjuring tricks and passed it to him, “this is the invitation and the clothes. The problem is… the Field Service always have the strict monitoring to us these employees. You show up like this by my side, and even follow me to go to the dancing party, it’s hard for the others don’t have the doubts. How could I introduce you to the others?”
“You have an uncle called Shield Da.” the middle-aged man said with a smile, “from this moment on, I will be Shield Da. He just finished the research of the outer space ore planet, came back to see you, go to the dancing party and have some fun by the way.”
Shielding almost forgot what his that uncle looked like, he asked, “where is the real Shield Da?”
“He was still having the engineering experiment on the ore planet. If the intelligence of those boys down there is right, these days he should on the trip on vacation. It just so happened, that spaceship we can control.”
Shielding didn’t worry about the careful arrangement of the other party, the intelligence leader of the anti-government army, if he made the mistake even on this kind of things, then he wouldn’t be possible to live for these many years in the hunt of the federation.
He silenced for a moment and said, “I can bring you in, but whether you can meet with the prince, that’s not the thing I can control. You should know it clearly from the return report, until now, the Pear Garden university protects him pretty well, besides the president Nolan, nobody could get close to him… even the siblings of the Chad family also couldn’t.”
“My young man, in fact, sometimes want to contact with some people, doesn’t mean that you have to get a lot of turns. Perhaps the most direct way, also is the most effective way.” the middle-aged man said with a smile, “I am not the spy like you this kind, I only consider the problems directly.”
Shielding gazed at him blankly, thought the most successful spy chief in the thirty seventh Constitution Calendar of the human society, would incredibly said that he was not a spy. If not heard that it’s came out from this legendary figure’s mouth himself, he would certainly consider that this was a very not funny joke.
“You want to meet with the successor of the Tai family, then you must have to use your own true identity. Then after the thing is over, my identity will also be exposed for sure… how the organization is going to arrange me?” involved the most important part, Shielding asked very directly, “I don’t want to face the anger of the whole FBI.”
“The people in the mountains always didn’t have the channels to meet with the real power characters of the federation, after all, we are not the people can show up on the table like the committee member Medellin that kind of people.” the middle-aged man said with a smile, “now this is an opportunity, it is worth the risk. If the negotiation with the other party is very smooth, the other party would employ the power their family have in the federation, conceal everything for us. If the negotiation is not going well… I figure out that it’s hard for me to go back alive. In that case, you go to see George Colin with me together, perhaps it’s also not a bad choice?”
Shielding had his facial expression changed, he didn’t expect that this political leader of the anti-government would say the words such like this. But he sniffed something else out from the words immediately, especially when the other party called the senator the committee member, the committee member was the internal organization title of the anti-government… he frowned and asked, “the mountains… couldn’t hold on much longer?”
The middle-aged man still kept the smile on his face, but the smile had some vicissitude and exclamation in, “the election of the four states surrounding the mountains was successful, the committee member Medellin gains a lot of supports, the insisting to have the own armed forces people… including me, all were somewhat lonely. The assault of the federal army has continued, if the situation keeps developing like this, I don’t know how long the mountains can hold on.”
Shielding kept silence for a long time, he worried about the safety of his those companions in the mountains, but he would like to know even more, this time the organization risked such a huge danger, let “He” come to attend the adult ceremony of the Tai family successor,
what kind of interest they really wanted to get. After a moment, he gave up the impulse to inquire about the inside story, said very seriously, “thank you for telling me the truth.”
“I believe the loyalty you have to the belief.”
“Belief doesn’t have anything to do with the loyalty, I just don’t like this federation.” Shielding said smilingly, “actually I have been very curious, besides that too simple code name, what I supposed to call you?”
“You can call me the mountain man.” the middle-aged man said with a smile.
Sheilor didn’t know that tonight the dancing party of the Bi-moons Festival, had already become the stage for those high-order position people in the federation to show themselves, and even had already become the competition between the two main forces of the anti-government side gradually. He even didn’t know that the center of this vortex was that young man named Charlie Tai. How could he imagine, the friend he knew would be the big shot, could influence the whole federation incredibly.
The dancing would be held in a quiet and beautiful building in the Pear Garden university, the green trees around the building were covered with a layer of ice frost, it’s so beautiful in the shine of the lights.
Sheilor was bored to wait at the entrance for Shielding, he looked up to the sky, found out that the clouds in the sky had already disappeared to nowhere, countless stars were surrounding those two gradually getting closer moons, the scenery was so spacious to make people feel worried more.
Perhaps Charming would show up in the dancing party with that childe of the senator together? Sheilor looked at those two round moons on the sky, narrowed his eyes and though, he felt the ineffable empty in the heart. If not for Shielding would come tonight, perhaps he would rather to stay in the H1 area, to have that seemed never ending level VI training… of course, after that scene happened in the comprehensive gymnasium today, Sheilor also was not so sure, whether he still had the opportunity to enter the H1 area once again.
His shoulder was patted by somebody, he turned around and was very pleased to see Shielding that face, at the same time, he also noticed the hidden heavy under the casual expression of the other party, and by the other party’s side… that middle-aged man.
Originally Shielding didn’t want to meet with Sheilor tonight, but didn’t know why, by his side that bodacious anti-government leader incredibly pointed out the direction of Sheilor, said with a smile that he wanted to come to say hello.
“I am Shielding’s uncle… you are Sheilor, right? I often heard him to mention you in the letters.” the middle-aged man ha ha smiled at Sheilor and said, “you can also call me uncle.”
Sheilor was distracted for a moment, thought that he never heard Shielding mentioned him before, but he still called him uncle honestly, was unaware the facial expression of Shielding was abnormally rich.
Just at this time, the eyes of Sheilor became light up, because he saw a rare car drove to the path right in front of the building.
The heavy doors were opened successively, a group of dressing well men and women walked over reservedly. The dressed in red evening dress young lady of the Chad family was walking in the most front, those men and women who he had just seen in the clothes store this afternoon, walked side by side with her, it seemed that their identities were also not that low neither.
The trouble seemed to be coming, Shielding said something to the middle-aged man in a low voice, the middle-aged man just had a smile and shook his head.
Sheilor didn’t pay attention to these, he was just staring at that girl in the middle of this group of people, that dressed in the light blue silk skirt, walked towards him like a spirit Charming.
